Bug Description

There has been a concerning amount of reports about the mouse locking up whilst logging in to Precise, and having only partial keyboard functionality. I can confirm this has happened to me, on an Acer Aspire 5738/5338 series laptop. I tried using older kernel through to the latest one which ships with Precise.

2.6.38
3.0.0
3.2.0

There is a solution over on: http://linuxforums.org.uk/index.php?topic=10104.0

It has worked in solving the problem.

I'm unsure of what's causing it, and because I can't get into a terminal to find out I can't give any to help you guys. (Sorry!)

There is definitely a gremlin in there somewhere.
